Quick Cilantro Lime Rice
Who doesn’t love Mexican Food? I know it is one of everyone’s favorites in our house. This rice is super simple side dish for tacos or it can be a main star in burrito bowls! Love how quick and easy it is to throw together and kick any dinner up a notch. I adapted the recipe to a quicker version of Magnolia Table’s Cilantro Lime Rice. I always end up forgetting about the starting the rice until last minute…so adapting their recipe made it so I could still include this yummy rice dish in our meal!
